Appalachian Trail Conservancy Headquarters

Appalachian Trail Conservancy Headquarters

The Appalachian Trail Conservancy hired the Mills Group to help organize their headquarters in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. The existing building serves as office space, visitors center, as well as a gift shop. Mills Group helped ATC to achieve their mission to promote and preserve the Appalachian Trail through the re-imagining of their headquarters.

The firm provided space planning services to organize the layout of the departments as well as created a refreshed interior. Additionally, the existing foundation was stabilized which resulted in usable subterranean space.

The rear of the building was improved with the addition of a new Appalachian style entry which provides a focal point in the new entrance as well as provides a nod to the Conservancy's architectural aesthetic.

The firm also provided direction for new drainage along the rear of the building, as well as improved parking lot design, and the introduction of accessible parking.
